Abstract

The lock bolt (80) operated by a closure element (81) penetrates the lock plate (20). At least two longitudinally movable slide rods (30, 31) joined by a connecting element (40) have locking elements (33) fitting into corresponding holes (35). The slide rods are movable against restoring force by means of a handle (61) rotatingly mounted in a lock-nut (60) and are locked in this opened position. The slide rods are released by directly operating the locking elements in the lock plate`s longitudinal direction (L). Closing the door (T) exerts force on the locking elements, acting parallel with the slide rods.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Mehrpunktverriegelung gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1.The invention relates to a multi-point lock according to the preamble of claim 1.

Haus- und Zimmertüren schließen gewöhnlich mit Falle und Riegel im Bereich der Türenmitte. Aus verschiedenen Gründen ist es von Interesse, den Türstulp über den Schloßkasten hinausgehend an weiteren Punkten mit der Türzarge zu verriegeln; beispielsweise um die Einbruchhemmung zu erhöhen oder um ein Verziehen der geschlossenen Tür zu verhindern. Die hierzu verwendeten Türschlösser haben meist zwei oder mehrere, in äquidistanten Abständen entlang der Stulpleiste angeordnete Verriegelungselemente wie z.B. Rollzapfen, Pilzkopfzapfen, Zungen o.dgl., die mittels hinter der Stulpleiste gleitgeführter, längsverschieblicher Schubstangen angetrieben bzw. betätigt werden. Die Verriegelungselemente rasten in korrespondierenden Ausnehmungen ein, die an entsprechenden Stellen in den Türzargen eingelassen sind. Betätigt werden diese sogenannten Treibstangenverschlüsse durch Drehung eines in einen Schließzylinder einzusteckenden Schlüssels oder durch Betätigung eines entgegen einer Federkraft drehbar gelagerten Griffs (Drückers).House and room doors usually close with a latch and bolt in the middle of the door. For various reasons it is of interest to lock the door cuff beyond the lock case at other points with the door frame; for example to increase burglar resistance or to prevent the closed door from warping. The door locks used for this usually have two or more locking elements arranged at equidistant intervals along the faceplate, e.g. Roller pegs, mushroom head pegs, tongues or the like, which are driven or actuated by means of longitudinally displaceable push rods which slide behind the faceplate. The locking elements snap into corresponding recesses, which are embedded at corresponding points in the door frames. These so-called espagnolette locks are actuated by turning a key to be inserted into a locking cylinder or by actuating a handle (handle) which is rotatably mounted against a spring force.

Um zu erreichen, daß die Verriegelungselemente beim Schließen der Tür automatisch in ihre Gegenschließteile eingreifen, ohne daß dazu eine Kraft über den Griff ausgeübt werden muß, werden die Verriegelungselemente beim Öffnen der Tür mit den Schubstangen entgegen einer Federkraft vorgespannt und in einer Öffnungsstellung arretiert. Beim Aufsetzen der Tür auf den Türrahmen werden die Schubstangen mittels einer Auslösevorrichtung ausgelöst und die Verriegelungselemente kehren aufgrund der Federbelastung selbsttätig in ihre Schließstellungen zurück und rasten dort ein. Die wirkende Federkraft ist dabei so dimensioniert, daß sie zum sicheren Verschließen der Türen ausreicht.In order to ensure that the locking elements automatically engage in their counter-closing parts when the door is closed, without the need to exert any force on the handle, the locking elements become open the door with the push rods biased against a spring force and locked in an open position. When the door is placed on the door frame, the push rods are triggered by a release device and the locking elements automatically return to their closed positions due to the spring load and engage there. The acting spring force is dimensioned so that it is sufficient to securely lock the doors.

Eine derartige gattungsgemäße Schließvorrichtung ist beispielsweise in EP-A-0 385 213 beschrieben. Hinter Stulpschienenabschnitten geführte Treibstangen werden durch Verdrehen eines Griffs oder durch Freigabe eines die Treibstangen belastenden Kraftspeichers in rahmenseitige Gegenschließteile gefahren, wobei die Freigabe des Kraftspeichers mittels eines beim Schließen der Tür vom Rahmen betätigten Auslösers erzielt wird. Der Auslöser, ein mit einem Tastglied ausgestatteter Schwenkhebel und der als Druckfeder ausgebildete Kraftspeicher sind rückseitig der frei überstehenden Stulpschienen-Abschnitte angeordnet, wozu diese und die Treibstangen entgegengesetzt ausgeformte Ausbiegungen aufweisen. Der Schwenkhebel wird von einer Zugfeder in einer Mittelstellung gehalten und stützt sich dabei in einer Kehle eines auf der Treibstange befestigten Widerlagers ab. Zum Auslösen der hebelgesteuerten Verriegelung greift das zapfenartig ausgebildete Tastglied durch einen konzentrisch zum Schwenkhebel-Drehpunkt liegenden Bogenschlitz hindurch und durchfährt beim Schließen der Tür eine Eintrittsöffnung in einem türrahmenseitigen Schließblech. Der Schwenkhebel wird aus seiner Mittelstellung verschwenkt und gibt die federbelasteten Treibstangen frei. Neben den an den Treibstangen geführten Schließgliedern sind zusätzliche Tastglieder mit einer relativ aufwendigen Hebel-Konstruktion notwendig, um das Schließen der Tür zu registrieren. Darüberhinaus müssen in den Türrahmen besondere Ausnehmungen eingebracht werden, damit die Ausbiegungen der Stulpleiste nicht hervorstehen und am Türrahmen anschlagen. Der konstruktive und fertigungstechnische Aufwand ist sehr hoch, die Türschlösser sind entsprechend teuer.Such a generic locking device is described for example in EP-A-0 385 213. Driving rods guided behind faceplate sections are moved into counter-closing parts on the frame side by turning a handle or by releasing a force accumulator loading the drive rods, the energy accumulator being released by means of a trigger actuated by the frame when the door is closed. The trigger, a swivel lever equipped with a feeler element and the energy accumulator designed as a compression spring are arranged on the back of the freely projecting cuff rail sections, for which purpose these and the drive rods have oppositely shaped bends. The pivot lever is held in a central position by a tension spring and is supported in a throat of an abutment fastened to the drive rod. To trigger the lever-controlled locking, the pin-shaped pushbutton reaches through an arch slot which is concentric to the pivot lever pivot point and passes through an entry opening in a striking plate on the door frame when the door is closed. The swivel lever is swiveled out of its central position and releases the spring-loaded connecting rods. In addition to the locking members guided on the connecting rods, additional pushbuttons with a relatively complex lever construction are required to register the closing of the door. In addition, special recesses must be made in the door frame so that the bends of the faceplate do not protrude and strike the door frame. The design and manufacturing costs are very high, the door locks are correspondingly expensive.

Eine andere Schließvorrichtung gemäß DE-A1-4 110 556 hat in einem Schloßgehäuse einen Kraftspeicher, der durch Öffnungsbetätigung eines Schlosses aufladbar und durch Auflaufen eines Tasters am Türrahmen freigebbar ist. Auch diese Lösung bedarf einer aufwendigen Hebel- und Zahnrad-Konstruktion, die zudem von der Handhabung her kompliziert ist. Das Vorspannen der Treibstangen ist nur durch Rückschließbewegung eines Schließzylinders möglich, während die Freigabe der Arretierung durch Synchronbetätigung des Tasters und der griffbetätigten Falle erfolgen muß.Another locking device according to DE-A1-4 110 556 has an energy store in a lock housing, which can be charged by opening a lock and released by pressing a button on the door frame. This solution also requires a complex lever and gear construction, which is also complicated to handle. Preloading the drive rods is only possible by closing a locking cylinder during the Release of the lock must be done by synchronous actuation of the button and the handle-operated latch.

Ziel der Erfindung ist es, eine Mehrpunktverriegelung zu schaffen, die einfach aufgebaut und leicht zu handhaben ist. Ferner soll der notwendige Platzbedarf von Schloßkasten und Stulpschienen auf ein Minimum reduziert werden.The aim of the invention is to provide a multi-point lock that is simple in construction and easy to handle. Furthermore, the space required for the lock case and faceplate should be reduced to a minimum.

Hauptmerkmale der Erfindung sind im kennzeichnenden Teil von Anspruch 1 angegeben. Ausgestaltungen sind Gegenstand der Ansprüche 2 bis 23.Main features of the invention are set out in the characterizing part of claim 1. Refinements are the subject of claims 2 to 23.

Bei einer Mehrpunktverriegelung zum Verschließen von Türen mit einem Schloßkasten, einer daran befestigten Stulpleiste, einer diese durchgreifenden, federbelasteten Falle, einem die Leiste durchgreifenden, über ein Schließelement betätigbaren Sperr-Riegel und mit wenigstens zwei über ein Verbindungselement miteinander gekoppelten, längsbeweglichen Schubstangen mit in korrespondierende Ausnehmungen eingreifenden Verriegelungselementen, wobei die Schubstangen entgegen einer Rückstellkraft mittels eines drehbar in einer Nuß gelagerten Griffs in eine Öffnungsstellung bewegbar und in dieser vorgespannten Stellung arretierbar sind, sieht die Erfindung vor, daß die Schubstangen durch unmittelbare Betätigung der Verriegelungselemente in Längsrichtung der Stulpleiste aus der Arretierung lösbar sind. Spezielle an der Stulpleiste vorzusehende oder im Schloßkasten zu integrierende Auslöse-Hebel-Mechanismen sind nicht erforderlich, um das Einrasten der an den Treibstangen gelagerten Verriegelungselemente in ihren Ausnehmungen im Türrahmen zu bewirken. Vielmehr ermöglicht die erfindungsgemäße Konstruktion einen überraschend einfachen und robusten Aufbau einer Mehrpunktverriegelung, die sich bequem benutzen läßt.In a multi-point locking system for locking doors with a lock case, a cuff attached to it, a spring-loaded latch that passes through it, a locking bolt that passes through the bar and can be actuated via a locking element, and with at least two longitudinally movable push rods that are coupled to one another via a connecting element Recessing locking elements, wherein the push rods against a restoring force by means of a rotatably mounted in a nut handle can be moved into an open position and locked in this pretensioned position, the invention provides that the push rods by direct actuation of the locking elements in the longitudinal direction of the faceplate from the lock are solvable. Special release lever mechanisms to be provided on the faceplate or to be integrated in the lock case are not required in order to cause the locking elements mounted on the drive rods to snap into their recesses in the door frame. Rather, the construction according to the invention enables a surprisingly simple and robust construction of a multi-point lock that can be used comfortably.

Gemäß Anspruch 2 ist durch Schließen der Tür eine parallel zu den Schubstangen wirkende Kraft auf die Verriegelungselemente ausübbar. Diese löst die Treibstangen in Schließrichtung aus ihrer Arretierung, ohne daß eine zusätzlich Hebel- oder Griffbetätigung ausgeführt werden muß.According to claim 2, a force acting parallel to the push rods can be exerted on the locking elements by closing the door. This releases the connecting rods from their locking in the closing direction without an additional lever or handle actuation having to be carried out.

Die Ausnehmungen sind, wie Anspruch 3 vorsieht, von im Türrahmen einlaßbaren Schließblechen gebildet, die laut Anspruch 4 im Eintrittsbereich der Verriegelungselemente angeordnete, um einen Winkel zur Schubstangen-Längsrichtung schräg stehende Anschlagflächen aufweisen. Beim Anschlagen der Verriegelungselemente wird in vorteilhafter Weise eine parallel zu den Schubstangen wirkende Kraftkomponente auf die Verriegelungselemente ausgeübt, die ein selbsttätiges Auslösen der Arretierung bewirkt. Um sicherzustellen, daß die Verriegelungselemente die Tür formschlüssig an den Türrahmen ziehen, besitzen die Schließbleche gemäß Anspruch 5 wenigstens eine um einen Winkel zur Schubstangenlängsrichtung versetzt angeordnete Seitenfläche.The recesses are, as provided in claim 3, formed by closing plates which can be inserted into the door frame and which, according to claim 4, have stop surfaces arranged in the entry area of the locking elements and inclined at an angle to the longitudinal direction of the push rod. When the locking elements are struck, a force component acting parallel to the push rods is advantageously exerted on the locking elements, which causes the locking mechanism to be triggered automatically. To ensure that the locking elements fit the door pull on the door frame, the striking plates according to claim 5 have at least one side surface offset by an angle to the longitudinal direction of the push rod.

In Einklang mit Anspruch 6 ist wenigstens ein Verriegelungselement ein als Auslöser fungierender Rollzapfen, der laut Anspruch 7 exzentrisch gelagert sein kann. Damit ist es möglich, durch einfaches Verstellen der Rollzapfen den Anschlag der geschlossenen Türen zu optimieren.In accordance with claim 6, at least one locking element is a trunnion acting as a trigger, which according to claim 7 can be mounted eccentrically. This makes it possible to optimize the opening of the closed doors by simply adjusting the roller pin.

Um einem Verziehen der verschlossenen Tür wirksam vorzubeugen, erstreckt sich nach Anspruch 8 die Länge der Stulpleiste im montierten Zustand über die gesamte Türhöhe, wobei Anspruch 9 an jeder Schubstange wenigstens einen Rollzapfen vorsieht. Die Rollzapfen dienen auf vorteilhafte Weise der Auslösung der Arretierung, wobei dies wahlweise über einen einzelnen oder über alle Rollzapfen synchron gemeinsam erfolgen kann.In order to effectively prevent warping of the closed door, the length of the faceplate extends in the assembled state over the entire door height, claim 9 providing at least one roller pin on each push rod. The roller pins are advantageously used to trigger the locking, whereby this can be done jointly either individually or over all roller pins.

Die Weiterbildung von Anspruch 10 besteht darin, daß das Verbindungselement zwischen den Schubstangen in Schließrichtung von einer Druckfeder, beispielsweise einer Schraubenfeder, belastet ist. Diese erlaubt eine exakte Dosierung der Rückstellkraft und gewährleistet eine hohe Betriebszuverlässigkeit.The development of claim 10 is that the connecting element between the push rods in the closing direction is loaded by a compression spring, for example a coil spring. This allows an exact dosage of the restoring force and guarantees a high operational reliability.

Die über einen Griff, Knopf o.dgl. betätigte Nuß weist gemäß Anspruch 11 eine Mitnehmernase zur Betätigung der Falle und einen vorzugsweise um 90° umfangsversetzt angeordneten Mitnehmerstift auf. Dieser greift in eine Umfangsaussparung mit Anschlagkanten einer Nußhülse ein, die in der Ausgestaltung von Anspruch 12 die Nuß umschließt. Ferner sieht Anspruch 13 vor, daß die Nußhülse eine Klaue hat, die mit einer Ausnehmung in dem Verbindungselement in Eingriff steht. Eine mit dem Griff auf die Nuß ausgeübte Drehbewegung wird auf einfache Art und Weise über die Nußhülse und das Verbindungselement auf die Schubstange übertragen. Betätigt man den Griff nach unten, werden die Falle und die Verriegelungselemente gleichzeitig aus ihren Raststellungen gehoben und letztgenannte in einer Öffnungsstellung arretiert. Die Tür kann geöffnet werden. Drückt man den Griff nach oben, so wird ebenfalls über die Nußhülse die Arretierung gelöst. Die Verriegelungselemente können manuell in ihre Schließbleche verrastet werden. Dies ist vor allem dann notwendig, wenn sich die Türen verzogen haben sollten.The over a handle, button or the like. actuated nut has, according to claim 11, a driver lug for actuating the latch and a driver pin, preferably offset circumferentially by 90 °. This engages in a circumferential recess with stop edges of a nut sleeve, which in the embodiment of claim 12 encloses the nut. Furthermore, claim 13 provides that the nut sleeve has a claw which is in engagement with a recess in the connecting element. A rotary movement exerted on the nut with the handle is transmitted in a simple manner via the nut sleeve and the connecting element to the push rod. If you press the handle downwards, the latch and the locking elements are lifted out of their locking positions at the same time and the latter is locked in an open position. The door can be opened. If you push the handle upwards, the lock is also released via the nut sleeve. The locking elements can be manually locked into their striking plates. This is especially necessary if the doors are warped.

Um die Griffbewegung nach oben zu begrenzen, sieht Anspruch 14 vor, daß die Nußhülse eine Anschlagfläche zur Anlage an einem Schloßkasten-Vorsprung aufweist.In order to limit the grip movement upwards, claim 14 provides that the nut sleeve has a stop surface for abutment on a lock case projection.

Eine bedeutsame Weiterbildung der Erfindung geht aus Anspruch 15 hervor. Danach hat das Verbindungselement eine Rastvertiefung, z.B. eine Kugelpfanne, in die in Öffnungsstellung der Schubstangen ein federbelastetes Rastglied formschlüssig eingreift. Durch dieses Einrasten der Kugel werden die Schubstangen auf überraschend einfache Weise in einer Öffnungsstellung gehalten, ohne daß eine Sperr-Hebel-Anordnung erforderlich ist. Gemäß Anspruch 16 kann die Rastvertiefung auch eine längliche Form aufweisen und das Rastglied eine Kugel oder ein Zylinderstück von z.B. 5 mm Länge sein.An important further development of the invention results from claim 15. The connecting element then has a latching recess, e.g. a ball socket into which a spring-loaded latching element engages in a form-fitting manner in the open position of the push rods. By this locking of the ball, the push rods are held in a surprisingly simple manner in an open position without the need for a locking lever arrangement. According to claim 16, the locking recess can also have an elongated shape and the locking member is a ball or a cylindrical piece of e.g. 5 mm in length.

Ebenfalls von besonderer Bedeutung ist die in Anspruch 17 angegebene Gestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Mehrpunktverriegelung, wonach der Schließriegel mittels eines Schließelements, z.B. eines Schließzylinders, indirekt über eine Hebelanordnung betätigbar ist. Herkömmliche zahnstangenartige Riegelausnehmungen oder aufwendige Zahnradgetriebe, die einen nur geringen Riegelausschluß pro Schlüsselumdrehung bewirken, werden vermieden. Vielmehr ermöglicht die einfach zu realisierende Hebelanordnung, die gemäß Anspruch 18 eine in einem Drehpunkt federnd gelagerte Schwinge aufweist, einen erheblich größeren Riegelausschluß. Die Schwinge hat an ihren dem Drehpunkt abgewandten Ende einen Schlitz, der laut Anspruch 19 eine Führungsnase des Riegels umschließt. Letzterer ist nach Anspruch 20 im Führungsschlitz gleitgeführt. Zum Antrieb der Schwinge mit dem Schließbart des Schließzylinders hat die Schwinge gemäß Anspruch 22 eine dem Schließzylinder zugewandte Ausnehmung.Also of particular importance is the design of the multi-point locking system according to the invention, according to which the locking bolt is by means of a locking element, e.g. a lock cylinder, can be actuated indirectly via a lever arrangement. Conventional rack-like bolt recesses or complex gear transmissions, which cause only a small bolt exclusion per key turn, are avoided. Rather, the easy-to-implement lever arrangement, which according to claim 18 has a rocker arm resiliently mounted in a pivot point, enables a considerably larger bolt exclusion. The rocker has at its end facing away from the fulcrum a slot which, according to claim 19, surrounds a guide lug of the bolt. The latter is slidably guided in the guide slot according to claim 20. To drive the rocker with the lock bit of the lock cylinder, the rocker has a recess facing the lock cylinder.

Um ein unbefugtes Öffnen einer mit der erfindungsgemäßen Mehrpunktverriegelung verschlossenen Tür zu verhindern, besitzt der Riegel in der Ausbildung von Anspruch 23 eine Klaue, die in Schließstellung des Riegels mit einer Ausnehmung in dem Verbindungselement in Eingriff steht. Ein Verschieben des Verbindungselements und damit der Schubstangen wird so auf einfache Art und Weise unterbunden. Da der Griff über die Nußhülse ebenfalls mit dem Verbindungselement gekoppelt ist, kann auch diese nicht nach unten gedrückt werden.In order to prevent unauthorized opening of a door locked with the multi-point locking system according to the invention, the bolt in the embodiment of claim 23 has a claw which, when the bolt is in the closed position, engages with a recess in the connecting element. Moving the connecting element and thus the push rods is prevented in a simple manner. Since the handle is also coupled to the connecting element via the nut sleeve, it cannot be pressed down either.

Die in den Fig. 1a, 1b und Fig. 2a, 2b dargestellte Mehrpunktverriegelung besitzt einen Schloßkasten 11 mit einem Bodenteil 12 und einem (nicht eingezeichneten) Deckel 13, eine an der Schloßkastenfront 14 befestigte Stulpleiste 20, die sich vorzugsweise über die gesamte Türhöhe einer Tür T erstreckt, sowie eine obere Schubstange 30 und eine untere Schubstange 31, die jeweils mit z.B. die Stulpleiste 20 durchgreifenden Rollzapfen 33 längsverschieblich gelagert sind. Letztere greifen in geschlossener Stellung in Schließblechaussparungen 35 ein und verriegeln dadurch ein Türblatt T formschlüssig mit einer Türzarge bzw. einem Türrahmen R.The multi-point locking system shown in FIGS. 1a, 1b and 2a, 2b has a lock case 11 with a base part 12 and a cover 13 (not shown), a faceplate 20 fastened to the lock case front 14, which preferably extends over the entire door height Door T extends, as well as an upper push rod 30 and a lower push rod 31, each with eg the faceplate 20 through rolling pin 33 are mounted longitudinally. The latter engage in striking plate recesses 35 in the closed position and thereby lock a door leaf T in a form-fitting manner with a door frame or a door frame R.

Ein auf dem Bodenteil 12 des Schloßkastens 11 gleitendes Verbindungselement 40 in Form eines Schubstangenschuhs koppelt die Bewegung der Schubstangen 30, 31, indem diese, z.B. mit Ausnehmungen 32, entsprechende Nasen 41 an dem Schuh 40 formschlüssig übergreifen. Er ist von einer in Schubstangen-Längsrichtung L wirkenden Druckfeder 48 belastet, die sich an einem Schloßkasten-Vorsprung 16 und an einem Absatz 42 an dem Schuh 40 abstützt, wobei ein in einem Längsschlitz 43 geführter Zapfen 17 ein seitliches Ausweichen des Schuhs 40 während der Gleitbewegung verhindert. An seinem oberen Ende 45 weist der Schubstangenschuh 40 eine Rastvertiefung 46, vorzugsweise in Form einer Kugelpfanne auf. Er untergreift mit diesem Ende 45 einen Führungsblock 50 mit einer durchgehenden, senkrecht zum Bodenteil 12 verlaufenden Bohrung 51. Diese ist von einer Blattfeder 53 abgedeckt und enthält ein in Bohrungsrichtung frei bewegliches Rastelement 52, z.B. eine Kugel, wobei die Höhe der Bohrung 51 derart bemessen ist, daß die auf dem Bodenteil 12 aufsetzende Kugel 52 in die Bohrung 53 taucht, sie aber nicht überragt.A connecting element 40 in the form of a push rod shoe that slides on the bottom part 12 of the lock case 11 couples the movement of the push rods 30, 31 by positively engaging over corresponding lugs 41 on the shoe 40, for example with recesses 32. It is loaded by a compression spring 48 acting in the longitudinal direction L of the push rod, which is supported on a lock case projection 16 and on a shoulder 42 on the shoe 40, a pin 17 guided in a longitudinal slot 43 evading laterally of the shoe 40 prevented during the sliding movement. At its upper end 45, the push rod shoe 40 has a locking recess 46, preferably in the form of a ball socket. With this end 45 it engages under a guide block 50 with a continuous bore 51 running perpendicular to the base part 12. This is covered by a leaf spring 53 and contains a detent element 52, for example a ball, which can move freely in the bore direction, the height of the bore 51 being dimensioned in this way is that the ball 52 placed on the bottom part 12 dips into the bore 53, but does not protrude beyond it.

Zwischen dem Bodenteil 12 und dem Deckel 13 des Schloßkastens 11 ist eine Schloßnuß 60 drehbeweglich gelagert. Sie dient zur Aufnahme eines in den Fig. 1a und 2a nur gestrichelt angedeuteten Griffs 61, der von einer Rückstellfeder 62 in einer mit I bezeichneten Mittelstellung gehalten wird. Die Nuß 60 besitzt einen Mitnehmerstift 63 sowie eine vorzugsweise um 90° winkelversetzt angeordnete Mitnehmernase 64 zur Betätigung einer Falle 65, die oberhalb der Schloßnuß 60 zwischen dem Bodenteil 12 und dem Deckel 13 gleitgeführt ist. Sie wird von einer an der Schloßkasten-Rückwand 15 abgestützten Druckfeder 66 in Auswärtsrichtung belastet und weist an ihrem rückwärtigen Ende 67 eine nach unten gerichtete Zunge 68 auf.Between the bottom part 12 and the lid 13 of the lock case 11, a lock nut 60 is rotatably mounted. It serves to receive a handle 61, which is only indicated by dashed lines in FIGS. 1a and 2a, and which is held in a central position denoted by I by a return spring 62. The nut 60 has a driver pin 63 and a driver lug 64, preferably arranged at an angle of 90 °, for actuating a latch 65, which is slidably guided above the lock nut 60 between the base part 12 and the cover 13. It is loaded in the outward direction by a compression spring 66 supported on the lock case rear wall 15 and has a downward tongue 68 at its rear end 67.

Über der Nuß 60 ist drehbar eine Nußhülse 70 gelagert, die gegenüber einer Umfangsaussparung 71 einen Ausleger 74 hat, der mit einer Klaue 75 in eine Ausnehmung 44 des Schubstangenschuhs 40 eingreift. Die Umfangsaussparung 71 weist eine obere und eine untere Anschlagkante 72, 73 auf, während eine Anschlagfläche 76 die Drehbewegung der Hülse 70 begrenzt, indem sie auf dem Schloßkasten-Vorsprung 16 aufsetzt.A nut sleeve 70 is rotatably mounted above the nut 60 and has a cantilever 74 opposite a circumferential recess 71 which engages with a claw 75 in a recess 44 of the push rod shoe 40. The circumferential recess 71 has an upper and a lower stop edge 72, 73, while a stop surface 76 limits the rotational movement of the sleeve 70 in that it rests on the lock case projection 16.

Fig. 1a zeigt die Mehrpunktverriegelung 10 in geschlossener Stellung. Die Druckfeder 48 schiebt den Schubstangenschuh 40 und damit die Schubstangen 30, 31 mit den Rollzapfen 33 nach unten, wobei der Schuh 40 in der Endstellung der Rollzapfen 33 an einem Anschlag, z.B. an dem Zapfen 17, aufsetzt und die Rollzapfen 33 vollständig in ihre Schließbleche eingreifen (vergleiche Fig. 4c). Der Mitnehmerstift 63 der Schloßnuß 60 liegt an der unteren Anschlagkante 73 der Umfangsaussparung 71 der Nußhülse 70 an, die mit ihrer Anschlagfläche 76 auf dem Schloßkasten-Vorsprung 16 aufsetzen kann. Die in dem Führungsblock 50 sitzende Kugel 52 sitzt auf dem Schloßkastenboden 12 auf (siehe Fig. 3a).Fig. 1a shows the multi-point lock 10 in the closed position. The compression spring 48 pushes the push rod shoe 40 and thus the push rods 30, 31 with the roller pin 33 down, the shoe 40 in the end position of the roller pin 33 touches a stop, for example on the pin 17, and the roller pin 33 completely in their striking plates intervene (see Fig. 4c). The driver pin 63 of the lock nut 60 rests on the lower stop edge 73 of the peripheral recess 71 of the nut sleeve 70, which can rest on the lock case projection 16 with its stop surface 76. The ball 52 seated in the guide block 50 sits on the lock case base 12 (see FIG. 3a).

Drückt man den Griff 61 entgegen den Kräften der Rückstellfeder 62 und der Druckfeder 48 nach unten in die mit II bezeichnete Stellung (siehe Fig. 2a), wird die Falle 65 von der an der Zunge 68 angreifenden Mitnehmernase 64 der Schloßnuß 60 entgegen der Kraft ihrer Feder 66 zurückgezogen und der in der Umfangsaussparung 71 anliegende Mitnehmerstift 63 der Schloßnuß 60 verdreht die Nußhülse 70 und damit den Ausleger 74. Dadurch wird der Schubstangenschuh 40 und die daran gekoppelten Schubstangen 30, 31 bzw. Rollzapfen 33 in Öffnungsrichtung bewegt. Das den Führungsblock 50 untergreifende obere Ende 45 des Schuhs 40 hebt die in der Bohrung 51 gelagerte Kugel 52 entgegen der Kraft der Blattfeder 53 an. Sobald die Falle 65 mit ihrem Rücken an der Schloßkasten-Rückwand 15 anschlägt, kommt die Kugelpfanne 46 konzentrisch unter der Bohrung 51 zu liegen und die Kugel 52 wird von der Blattfeder 53 fest in die Kugelpfanne 46 gepreßt (siehe Fig. 3b). Die Kraft der Druckfeder 48 reicht nun nicht mehr aus, um den Schuh 40 in seine untere Schließstellung zu bewegen. Vielmehr bleiben die Schubstangen 30, 31 und die Rollzapfen 33 in der Öffnungsstellung arretiert. Wird der Griff 61 losgelassen, so kehrt er durch seine Rückholfeder 62 in seine Ausgangslage I zurück, wobei der Mitnehmerstift 63 der Schloßnuß 60 allerdings an der oberen Anschlagkante 72 der Umfangsaussparung 71 anliegt.If you press the handle 61 against the forces of the return spring 62 and the compression spring 48 down into the position designated II (see Fig. 2a), the latch 65 engages on the tongue 68 engaging lug 64 of the lock nut 60 against the force of its The spring 66 is withdrawn and the driving pin 63 in the circumferential recess 71 of the lock nut 60 rotates the nut sleeve 70 and thus the arm 74. As a result, the push rod shoe 40 and the push rods 30, 31 or roller pin 33 coupled thereto are moved in the opening direction. The upper end 45 of the shoe 40 which engages under the guide block 50 lifts the ball 52 mounted in the bore 51 against the force of the leaf spring 53. As soon as the latch 65 strikes the lock case rear wall 15 with its back, the ball socket 46 comes to lie concentrically under the bore 51 and the ball 52 is pressed firmly into the ball socket 46 by the leaf spring 53 (see FIG. 3b). The force of the compression spring 48 is no longer sufficient to move the shoe 40 into its lower closed position. Rather, the push rods 30, 31 and the roller pin 33 remain locked in the open position. If the handle 61 is released, it returns to its starting position I through its return spring 62, the driver pin 63 of the lock nut 60, however, abutting the upper stop edge 72 of the peripheral recess 71.

Um die Verriegelungselemente 33 wieder in ihre Schließstellung zu bringen, muß die Rastkraft der die Kugel 52 belastenden Blattfeder 53 überwunden werden. Dies kann in einfacher Weise auf zwei Arten geschehen, wobei die Höhe der Rastkraft von der Stärke der Blattfeder 53 abhängt. Diese läßt sich beispielsweise durch einfaches übereinanderschichten mehrerer Blattfedern 53 leicht einstellen. Die einzelnen Blattfedern 53 sind dazu, wie Fig. 3c zeigt, mittels einer Schraube 54 auf dem Block 50 befestigt.In order to bring the locking elements 33 back into their closed position, the latching force of the leaf spring 53 loading the ball 52 must be overcome. This can be done in a simple manner in two ways, the amount of the latching force depending on the strength of the leaf spring 53. This can be easily adjusted, for example, by simply stacking several leaf springs 53 on top of one another. For this purpose, as shown in FIG. 3 c, the individual leaf springs 53 are fastened on the block 50 by means of a screw 54.

Durch Drehen des Griffs 61 in die in Fig. 1a angedeutete Stellung III wird über den an der oberen Anschlagkante 72 anliegenden Mitnehmerstift 63 die Nußhülse 70 und damit der Ausleger 74 nach links gedreht. Dadurch wird auf den Schubstangenschuh 40 eine Kraft übertragen, die ausreicht, um die Kugelrast zu lösen. Die Druckfeder 48 schiebt den Schubstangenschuh 40 und die daran gehalterten Schubstangen 30, 31 nach unten in die durch den Anschlag 17 und/oder die Anschlagfläche 76 vorgegebene Endstellung. Die Rollzapfen 33 greifen in den Schließblechen 34 ein und verriegeln die Tür T am Türrahmen R.By turning the handle 61 into the position III indicated in FIG. 1a, the nut sleeve 70 and thus the arm 74 are rotated to the left via the driver pin 63 resting on the upper stop edge 72. As a result, a force is transmitted to the push rod shoe 40 which is sufficient to release the ball catch. The compression spring 48 pushes the push rod shoe 40 and the push rods 30, 31 held thereon downward into the end position predetermined by the stop 17 and / or the stop surface 76. The roller pins 33 engage in the striking plates 34 and lock the door T on the door frame R.

Ein selbstätiges Verriegeln der Mehrpunktverriegelung 10 wird erreicht, wenn die in die Schließbleche 34 eingreifenden Rollzapfen 33 beim Schließen der Tür T in Schließrichtung X an eine schräg stehende Anschlagfläche 37 stoßen. Dies kann, wie in den Fig. 4a bis 4c dargestellt, eine oberhalb der Eintrittsöffnung 36 der Schließbleche 34 angeordnete Schräge 37 sein, die beispielsweise um einen Winkel von 35° schräg zur Schubstangen-Längsrichtung L angeordnet ist. Auf diese Weise wird durch die auf die Rollzapfen 33 wirkende Normalkraft eine Kraft F in Schließrichtung Y auf die Zapfen 33 ausgeübt, die ausreicht, um die Kugelrast zu lösen. Die Druckfeder 48 schiebt den Schubstangenschuh 40 und die damit verbundenen Rollzapfen 33 wie bereits beschrieben nach unten und verriegelt dadurch die Tür T (Fig. 2a, Fig. 4c). Sollte sich diese, z.B. aufgrund ungünstiger Klimabedingungen, verzogen haben, so daß die Rollzapfen 33 nicht vollständig in die Schließbleche 34 eingreifen können und/oder die Kraft der Druckfeder 48 nicht ausreicht, um den Schubstangenschuh 40 in seine Endstellung zu bringen, kann das Verriegeln durch einfaches Drehen des Griffs 61 nach oben in die in Fig. 2 gezeigte Stellung III erfolgen.Automatic locking of the multi-point lock 10 is achieved when the roller pins 33 engaging in the striking plates 34 abut an inclined stop surface 37 in the closing direction X when the door T is closed. As shown in FIGS. 4a to 4c, this can be a bevel 37 arranged above the inlet opening 36 of the striking plates 34, which is arranged, for example, at an angle of 35 ° to the longitudinal direction L of the push rod. In this way, a force F in the closing direction Y is exerted on the pins 33 by the normal force acting on the roller pins 33, which force is sufficient to release the ball catch. The compression spring 48 pushes the push rod shoe 40 and the associated roller pin 33 downward as already described and thereby locks the door T (FIG. 2a, FIG. 4c). Should this, e.g. due to unfavorable climatic conditions, so that the roller pins 33 cannot fully engage in the striking plates 34 and / or the force of the compression spring 48 is not sufficient to bring the push rod shoe 40 into its end position, the locking can be done by simply turning the handle 61 up into position III shown in FIG. 2.

Um den verriegelten Zustand der mit einer Mehrpunktverriegelung verschlossenen Tür T gegenüber Unbefugten zu sichern, ist zwischen der Bodenplatte 12 und dem Deckel 13 des Schloßkastens 11 ein Schließ-Riegel 80 verschieblich gelagert (Fig. 5a, 5b). Er durchgreift die untere Schubstange 31 und wird vorzugsweise mittels eines Schließzylinders 81 indirekt über eine Schwinge 91 betätigt. Diese ist mit einem Längsschlitz 92 drehbar auf einem Lagerstift 93 gelagert und mit einem Querbolzen 94 in einem U-förmigen Durchbruch 95 in der Schloßdecke 13 geführt, wobei das dem Lager 93 abgewandte Ende der Schwinge 91 eine Ausnehmung, bzw. einen Schlitz 98 aufweist, die einen Führungsnocken 83 des Riegels 80 umschließt.In order to secure the locked state of the door T locked with a multi-point locking system against unauthorized persons, a locking bolt 80 is slidably mounted between the base plate 12 and the cover 13 of the lock case 11 (FIGS. 5a, 5b). It passes through the lower push rod 31 and is preferably actuated indirectly by means of a locking cylinder 81 via a rocker 91. This is rotatably mounted on a bearing pin 93 with a longitudinal slot 92 and is guided with a cross bolt 94 in a U-shaped opening 95 in the lock cover 13, the end of the rocker 91 facing away from the bearing 93 having a recess or a slot 98, which encloses a guide cam 83 of the latch 80.

In geöffneter Stellung, dargestellt in Fig. 5b, sitzt die Schwinge 91 mit ihrem Querbolzen 94 formschlüssig auf dem Ende des hinteren Schenkels 96 des U-förmigen Durchbruchs 95 auf und wird dabei von einer Zugfeder 99 nach unten gezogen. Dreht man den Schließzylinder 81 mit Hilfe eines (nicht dargestellten) Schlüssels in Schließrichtung S, so greift der Schließbart 82 von unten in eine Ausnehmung 100 ein und hebt die Schwinge 91 entgegen der Kraft der Feder 99 an. Dabei wird der Querbolzen 94 aus dem hinteren U-Schenkel 96 herausgehoben und die Schwinge 91 zusammen mit dem Schließ-Riegel 80 in dessen Ausschlußrichtung S verschwenkt. Beim Erreichen der Endstellung des Riegels 80 verläßt der Schließbart 82 die Ausnehmung 100 und die Schwinge 91 wird von der Feder 99 wieder nach unten gezogen. Der Querbolzen 94 schnappt in den vorderen, nach unten weisenden Schenkel 97 des Durchbruchs 95 ein und verhindert dadurch in einfacher Weise ein unzulässiges Zurückschieben des Riegels 80 in Öffnungsrichtung. Dreht man den Schließzylinder 81 dagegen in Öffnungsrichtung, hebt der Schließbart 82 die federnd gelagerte Schwinge 91 wieder an, so daß der Riegel 80 über den Führungsnocken 83 wieder zurückverschwenkt wird. Durch eine geeignete Wahl des Drehpunktes 93 der Schwinge 91 wird eine Hebel-Übersetzung erzielt, die im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Antriebsarten bei gleichem Schlüsseldrehwinkel einen wesentlich größeren Riegelausschluß erzielt.In the open position, shown in Fig. 5b, the rocker 91 sits with its cross bolt 94 in a form-fitting manner on the end of the rear leg 96 of the U-shaped opening 95 and is pulled downward by a tension spring 99. If the locking cylinder 81 is turned in the closing direction S with the aid of a key (not shown), the locking bit 82 engages in a recess 100 from below and raises the rocker 91 against the force of the spring 99. The cross pin 94 is lifted out of the rear U-leg 96 and the rocker 91 is pivoted together with the locking bolt 80 in its exclusion direction S. Upon reaching the end position of the latch 80, the locking bit 82 leaves the recess 100 and the rocker 91 is removed from the Spring 99 pulled back down. The cross bolt 94 snaps into the front leg 97 of the opening 95 which points downward and thereby prevents the bolt 80 from being pushed back inadmissibly in the opening direction. If, on the other hand, the lock cylinder 81 is turned in the opening direction, the lock bit 82 raises the spring-mounted rocker 91 again, so that the latch 80 is pivoted back again via the guide cams 83. Through a suitable choice of the pivot point 93 of the rocker 91, a lever ratio is achieved which, in comparison with conventional types of drive, achieves a substantially larger bolt exclusion with the same key rotation angle.

Ordnet man auf der Rückseite des Riegels eine Klaue 86 an, die in Schließstellung S des Riegels 80 in eine Ausnehmung 49 des Schubstangenschuhs 40 eingreift, wird der gesamte Öffnungsmechanismus blockiert, da alle für das Öffnen der Verriegelung notwendigen Bauelemente miteinander gekoppelt sind.If a claw 86 is arranged on the back of the latch, which engages in a recess 49 of the push rod shoe 40 in the closed position S of the latch 80, the entire opening mechanism is blocked, since all the components necessary for opening the lock are coupled to one another.

Für den Transport und die Lagerhaltung der Mehrpunktverriegelung kann es von Vorteil sein, wenn die Stulpleiste 20 lösbar mit dem Schloßkasten 11 verbunden ist. Dazu besitzt der Stulp 20 einen Montagehaken 21, der hinter einem bevorzugt an dem Führungsblock 50 angeordneten Querstift 18 eingehakt wird. Anschließend werden die Stulpleiste 20 und der Schloßkasten 11 um den Querstift 18 verschwenkt und in einer am unteren Ende des Schloßkastens 11 vorgesehenen Rast 19 kraftschlüssig miteinander verbunden. Diese Verbindung läßt sich schnell und bequem herstellen und löst sich auch bei längeren Transporten nicht auf. Erst bei der eigentlichen Montage der Mehrpunktverriegelung 10 an einer Tür T wird die Stulpleiste 20 mittels einer Schraube 87 fest mit dem Schloßkasten 11 verbunden. Dabei wird in vorteilhafter Weise die Schraube 87 des Schließzylinders 80 verwendet.For the transport and storage of the multi-point lock, it can be advantageous if the faceplate 20 is detachably connected to the lock case 11. For this purpose, the faceplate 20 has a mounting hook 21 which is hooked in behind a transverse pin 18 which is preferably arranged on the guide block 50. The faceplate 20 and the lock case 11 are then pivoted about the transverse pin 18 and non-positively connected to one another in a catch 19 provided at the lower end of the lock case 11. This connection can be made quickly and conveniently and does not dissolve even with longer transports. Only when the multipoint locking system 10 is actually installed on a door T is the faceplate 20 firmly connected to the lock case 11 by means of a screw 87. The screw 87 of the locking cylinder 80 is used in an advantageous manner.

Die Erfindung ist nicht auf eine der vorbeschriebenen Ausführungsformen beschränkt, sondern in vielfältiger Weise abwandelbar. So kann die Rastvertiefung 46 eine zylindrische Querschnittsform aufweisen und das Rastelement 52 ein entsprechend geformtes Zylinderstück sein. Bei Bedarf läßt sich das automatische Einrasten der Rollzapfen 33 beim Schließen der Tür T leicht abstellen, indem die Druckfeder 48 entfernt wird. Beim Öffnen der Tür T wird der Schubstangenschuh 40 zwar in seiner Öffnungsstellung durch die Rastelemente 46, 52, 53 arretiert, die Auslösung des Schuhs 40 und das Einrasten der Verriegelungselemente 33 in den Schließblechen 34 muß aber durch Verschwenken des Griffs 61 nach oben in die Stellung III manuell ausgeführt werden, so daß eine hohe Bedienungssicherheit gegeben ist. Der Kraftaufwand zum Niederdrücken des Griffs 61 ist dadurch aber erheblich geringer, was für einen Einsatz der Verriegelung beispielsweise in einem Kinder- oder Altersheim von Vorteil sein kann.The invention is not limited to one of the above-described embodiments, but can be modified in many ways. For example, the locking recess 46 can have a cylindrical cross-sectional shape and the locking element 52 can be a correspondingly shaped cylinder piece. If necessary, the automatic latching of the roller pin 33 when the door T is closed can be easily switched off by removing the compression spring 48. When the door T is opened, the push rod shoe 40 is locked in its open position by the locking elements 46, 52, 53, but the triggering of the shoe 40 and the latching of the locking elements 33 in the striking plates 34 must be done by pivoting the handle 61 upwards the position III are carried out manually, so that a high level of operational security is given. However, the effort required to depress the handle 61 is considerably less, which can be advantageous for use of the lock, for example in a children's or nursing home.

Man erkennt, daß eine Mehrpunktverriegelung einen Schloßkasten 11, eine daran zu befestigende Stulpleiste 20, eine Falle 65, einen Sperr-Riegel 80 und zwei über ein Verbindungselement 40 miteinander gekoppelte, längsbewegliche Schubstangen 30, 31 mit in Schließblechen 34 eingreifenden Verriegelungselementen 33, z.B. exzentrisch gelagerte Rollzapfen, besitzt. Das mit einer Rastvertiefung 46 versehene Verbindungselement 40 ist erfindungsgemäß entgegen der Rückstellkraft einer Druckfeder 48 in einer vorgespannten Öffnungsstellung mittels eines federbelasteten Rastglieds 52 arretierbar und aus dieser durch unmittelbare Betätigung der Verriegelungselemente 33 in Längsrichtung L der Stulpleiste 20 lösbar. Bevorzugt weisen die Schließbleche 34 dazu im Eintrittsbereich 36 der Verriegelungselemente 33 angeordnete, schräg gestellte Anschlagflächen 37 auf, die auf die Rollzapfen 33 eine in Schließrichtung Y gerichtete Kraft F ausüben. Zum Sperren der Verriegelun ist der gleitgeführte Schließriegel 80 mittels eines Schließelements 81, z.B. eines Schließzylinders, indirekt über eine federnd gelagerte Schwinge 91 betätigbar. Die Mehrpunktverriegelung ist außerordentlich einfach und robust aufgebaut. Die wenigen, zumeist mit mehreren Funktionenen versehenen Bauteile lassen sich problemlos in einem Schloßkasten 11 mit überaus geringen Abmessungen unterbringen, so daß die Mehrpunktverriegelung selbst in Rohrrahmentüren einsetzbar ist.It can be seen that a multi-point locking system has a lock case 11, a faceplate 20 to be fastened to it, a latch 65, a locking bolt 80 and two longitudinally movable push rods 30, 31 coupled to one another via a connecting element 40, with locking elements 33 engaging in striking plates 34, for example eccentrically mounted rolling pin, owns. The connecting element 40 provided with a locking recess 46 can be locked according to the invention against the restoring force of a compression spring 48 in a pretensioned open position by means of a spring-loaded locking member 52 and can be detached therefrom by direct actuation of the locking elements 33 in the longitudinal direction L of the faceplate 20. For this purpose, the striking plates 34 preferably have inclined stop surfaces 37 which are arranged in the entry region 36 of the locking elements 33 and exert a force F in the closing direction Y on the rolling pins 33. To lock the lock, the slide-guided locking bolt 80 can be actuated indirectly by means of a locking element 81, for example a locking cylinder, via a spring-mounted rocker arm 91. The multi-point lock is extremely simple and robust. The few components, usually provided with multiple functions, can easily be accommodated in a lock case 11 with extremely small dimensions, so that the multi-point locking system can even be used in tubular frame doors.
